 Not the best choice. May 20, 2010
MC in WV
The U350 is a good laptop at this price point, but for less money the Toshiba T135-S1305 has the identical configuration plus draft N wifi, a 6 cell battery (9 hours), BlueTooth, a 5-in-1 card reader (as opposed to 4-in-1), and Microsoft Works preloaded.

 Great Student Laptop April 12, 2010

Not sure where some of the comments are coming about bad quality and service, this is by far the best rated company for quality in the PC business right now. I have had absolutely no problems with my Ideapad. My brother's ideapad had a issue where the hard drive was making a grinding noise. He called service, got right through to someone, they sent him a box to mail the computer in and he got it back working perfectly 3 days later. I definitely recommend this product and even more highly recommend the company for positive computing experience.

I received my new Lenovo U350 a few days ago, so here's what I have to say early on:
Pros:
1.Thin and Light...great size...3.5lbs is perfect...acceptable 5 hours from included 4 cell battery (8 cell available for $100)
For those looking at something like a Netbook (I recently returned one of the new Pinetrail Netbooks because of it only had Windows 7 Starter (very limited) and without a Broadcom HD card, will never be able to display any sort of HD streaming due to lack of any HD decoding
2. Intel SU4100 CPU is dual core allowing the laptop to use Windows 7 better than Netbooks, especially once you install Antivirus, the second core helps spread the workload around, unlike the single core N450 Atoms on Netbooks
3. Intel GMA 4500MHD is great for basic internet, AERO GLass UI, and HD decoding...just don't expect much else from ANY Intel integrated graphics...or you could spend $150 more and get the U350 with the switchable ATI card...just remember what the machine is...
4. Mac Pro looks without the Apple premium...for those who care when they are Starbucks
5. Stays cool on your lap, and fan isn't too loud...and isn't topover prone like the netbooks...
6. Full sized keyboard
7. Multitouch touchpad
8. Bright clear screen that allows full webpages without zooming out (unlike the 10 inch Netbooks) (it is a glossly screen for those who care)
9. Veriface camera login is pretty cool, say cheese!
Cons:
1. Touchpad buttons are sort of clunky, they work, but they are sort of annoying
2. Fn key is where the left Ctrl button usually is, so I keep hitting it instead of Ctrl when I Ctrl Enter to input web addresses
3. You really have to unistall and bunch of crap to get going, but that is to be expected from most computers...
4. Lenovo's support site is tragic at best...nothing like Dell or Apple...but there doesn't seem to be anything you need besides the Intel Graphics driver upgrades which can be autoinstalled from Intel's site
Overall, very happy with the laptop...for those complaining about the batter hinge getting broken I say this:
It is a ultra thin and light, so this is going to be a more fragile machine than a clunky notebook...so be careful with it...plastic doesn't like being forced so play gingerly...
I bought a Targus 14" Messenger laptop bag which works perfect for this machine...BTW

It arrived 3 days before Christmas not working. Just as well since even the feel of the unit was less than inspiring. My son is now the proud owner of a Dell that works albeit well after the majical day.
Very Satisfied with this Lenovo January 19, 2010

I was in need of a new laptop after my 5 year old HP had seen it best days. I wanted a lightweight laptop and was looking at the myriad of netbook choices out there in the $400-$500 range against products like this.
After over a week of research reading reviews and comparing features - this was the choice for me. I've been using it mostly for web browsing/youtube and the like, but also connect to work PC remotely and have spend several hours working spreadsheets/docs with no complaints. This is a downsized monitor size from my HP's 15 incher, but it's hardly noticeable.
I've since set up my desk with a 20" monitor and wireless keyboard and mouse. With the 3 USB (2 on the right,1 on left side), VGA and HDMI ports; setting it up as a sudo-desktop was a nice option others in this range don't offer.
Pros:
-Full size keyboard
-Ultra portable with plus size screen compared to netbooks with same/less capacity.
-Crisp graphics
-Quick boot with Windows 7 Home Premium
-Battery life as advertised
-Peripheral ports: HDMI, 3USB, Ethernet, VGA
-Solid construction
Cons:
-Mousepad and L&R click buttons take getting used to; just don't feel right but not broken in any way.
-Sound volume; not really a negative considering this is a ultra-portable unit and space is limited for better speakers. Nothing a set of earphones or external speakers wouldn't fix.
Overall I'm very pleased with this unit and given the price drop under $500 now, I would continue to recommend it.
